dudeski, I'll split up my answers.

1. I don't believe OEMs should be allowed to add proprietary software to their computers. It takes away freedom from the computer users. Free software is OK for them to add on.

2. The thing I have against BSD-style and MIT-style licenses is that compared to copyleft licenses is that they allow developers to turn their software into proprietary software. Instead of glibc I'll give another example, let's say Linux was relicensed under a BSD-style license. This would make it significantly easier for developers of proprietary drivers to create them. Meaning that there would be no more glue. BSD-style licenses do not discourage the creation of proprietary software.
